Do it. Living in is a key part of the sorority experience (where it's available) and juniors and seniors won't feel like odd women out simply due to their age or class standing. I lived in as a sophomore and junior and never noticed any real social disconnects based on age or pledge class. If anything, living in is the best way to really bond with people beyond your specific cohorts.

At my school, living in is/was the norm for everyone who didn't have preexisting freshman housing contracts, as long as space was available. All of our chapters have houses and my house in particular has great living spaces, but the common cultural thread was members wanting to be close to each other.
